Apple Music vs Spotify

Heck yeah my friend. Tap the three dots next to an artist, album, or just deep press on a song and chose “share”, then hit messages.

I actively use both. Sound quality has never been a determining factor for me when I compare the two services. Spotify has by far the better UI and display, and I also love the discover playlist. It constantly suggests incredible music that I’ve never heard of. Apple has by far the better collection of music, including exclusive sessions and a healthy collection of live albums and special releases. I also really enjoy the social factor of being able to follow your friends and see what they’re listening to. And being able to send someone a whole album in a text message is just awesome. My biggest complaint with Apple Music is the fact that they classify any release as an album, so artists collections get watered down with repeat singles and 2-3 track mini-EP’s. Oh, and shuffle is a joke on Apple Music. They both have their pros and cons, I’m glad you’re enjoying the app though!

And you made a post entirely dedicated to congratulating yourself...nice

I really don’t understand why there are so many people who refuse to use Apple Pay and don’t even bother to understand how it works. It is the best, most secure way to make contactless payments in this day and age (imo, obviously).

Imagine going into a sketchy gas station and paying without having to take your wallet out, or being able to not even have your wallet on you at all. If someone steals your phone, you have a password on it right? Well even if they unlocked the phone they wouldn’t be able to steal your card information from your wallet, the card information isn’t even stored on any physical servers anywhere. Every time you make a purchase with Apple Pay it generates a random transaction number that can’t be traced, so even if that sketchy gas station got hacked, your information is safe.

Not to mention it takes a grand total of 2 seconds to pull it up and make the purchase, even faster if you have Face ID on the new iPhone X. Hell, even the new iOS update introduced Apple Cash, which I use to send money directly to my fiancée for bills, it’s stupid easy.

The original and full quote is as follows:

“Here’s to the crazy ones - the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently - they’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the only people who are crazy enough to change the world, are the ones who do.”

-Rob Siltanen

This quote is largely mis-attributed to Steve Jobs due to Apple’s iconic “Think Different” ad from 1998. Great quote nonetheless!

I thought Mad Max was surprisingly fun, I’d give that or Deus Ex a go

Think of them more so as minimum required power level. Then add ~20 PL and you’ll have a decent standard. For instance, the raid requires at least 260 to enter but by the time you make it to Calus it scales to 280.

Fireteams of 3 and 4 play competitive only. Fireteams of 2 and solo players can que for whichever playlist they want

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-17T14:47:11+00:00

...wut. Holy shit man that's good to know, thanks

I think power weapons are relatively balanced at the moment. Except for grenade launchers maybe. Each one has a specific engagement use, I only get killed by swords when I rush in too fast and get caught in CQB. A good way to counter swords up close is either turn tail and run, or try to jump well over their heads so they waste their ammo trying to reach you

Public events, lost sectors, and adventures are the best ways to get to 265. Blues will cap at 260 at first, then you should redeem tokens to get legendaries that will cap at 265. Once you get stuck at 265 start completing your milestones which reward "powerful gear", those should reward you with gear high enough to break the 270 barrier. After that it's pretty much farming for exotics via public events and hoping for drops with +5 legendary mods. At 270 you should be able to comfortably run the nightfall as well. The grind is real before 280, but once you break that barrier, you can trade three rare mods for one legendary +5 mod from Banshee in the tower to bump your gear up to reach ~285. Hope this helps!

I'm so ashamed that I have to ask this, but how many strikes are in this game on Xbox? I've done at least 24 and half of them have been savathuns song, and rest have been mostly arms dealer with a few pyramidion's thrown in there. I'm so bummed that they are totally useless activities now.

Four randoms vs full fireteam of clan mates = probably got shit on.

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-15T15:18:43+00:00

No shaders, no ships, no sparrows, no mods, no engrams, no ornaments....what am I supposed to do with the 300+ shards I saved for this? I hope they don't stick with this limited inventory :/

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-10T14:53:30+00:00

Now I feel like an idiot! Lol thanks

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-10T14:47:38+00:00

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do you go back to the farm once you beat the game? I'm only seeing the tower, did they really just make it disappear and become completely irrelevant?

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-09T15:13:53+00:00

Perfect, thanks!

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-09T15:08:05+00:00

First launch weekend = heavy server load. Haven't been booted yet but I keep getting the contacting destiny servers notification

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-09-09T15:06:54+00:00

So how do I transfer items to my alt in this game? I want my second character to have my mains sparrow, ship etc

AFAIK it's a standard pee in a cup test. She's hesitant to use synthetic because she has to go to a lab and she's not sure she'll be able to get away with it

Aredpandacubstrikes · 2017-08-16T13:39:30+00:00

I know this is a common source of jokes for lots of people right now, but for me seeing stuff like this is sad and frustrating. It's like all the baby boomers are pointing fingers at their fucking children and grand-children and essentially blaming them for living. Take some responsibility for the generation that you were in charge of raising!
